When heard about Mbappe's record from social media, I thought he was close to 30 years old, but later I am so surprised to know he was born in 1998, and now he is only 25 years old! TALENT and YOUNG are definitely his advantages. It’s time to step in the world of Mbappe. Let’s get started!

♥ Mbappe's Childhood

‘The future of football’,‘little Neymar’, French star Kylian Mbappe has the most popular keywords in the media.

Mbappe grew up in Bundi, which is seen as a " non-white groups, social unrest, breeding ground for violence and terrorism." That’s why Mbappe is described as a fairy tale of second-generation immigrant. Mbappe's father was a local soccer coach in Bundi and his mother was a handball player. Influenced by his parents and the lack of other activities in the city, Mbappe spent the most time playing football on the field. What’s more, treat famous football star Ronaldo as his idol! We can see from this photo the childhood Mbappe's admiration for Ronaldo. His bedroom was plastered with Ronaldo posters. Here is an anecdote of little Mbappe. The owner of the club that employs Mbappe's father recalls that Mbappe "sat on the floor of the players' locker room before he could walk, clutching the ball and listening to 'tactical meetings he couldn't understand at all'".
